Impeachment Must Be On The Table

Is President Joe Biden’s Alleged Request To Saudi Arabia An Impeachable Offence?

I believe so.

I will be honest, I do not trust the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, period. Unfortunately, I do not trust the Biden administration either.

In two years, the Biden administration has destroyed our energy sector, healthcare system, education system, Armed Forces, and has entered our country into a proxy war with Russia while using the Neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine as an excuse.

It has been reported the Biden administration begged the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and OPEC+ to delay their 2 million barrels oil cut until after the United States mid-term elections.

A statement issued by the Kingdom’s Ministry Of Foreign Affairs appears to suggest the same.

I do not know if this is true, but the Biden administration has been pretty quiet and has gone silent on the issue. Other than Biden kicking, screaming, and offering empty threats to the Kingdom, the United States government has gone on little offense.

I personally believe the Biden administration asked the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to delay the cut because they have nothing to run on. Everything that matters to the American people has been manhandled by the Democrats and more likely they will be destroyed at the ballot box on November 8th.

Since OPEC’s+ announcement, gasoline prices have gone up and all the Biden administration has done is blame everyone else for their own mismanagement.

If the Republicans take control of the House of Representatives it is imperative an investigation and, if necessary, impeachment proceedings be initiated against Joe Biden.

Asking a foreign country or a foreign institution to delay or advance an agenda to help a country with their internal politics is illegal in the United States.

It appears Joe Biden’s actions did just that and he will need to be held accountable for it.

Will the Republicans have the guts to follow the constitution and hold this president accountable?

I am not so sure, but I am hopeful.

Time For The United States To Implement Mandatory Military Service

As a former member of the United States Army who had the honor and privilege to serve my country during peace and war time, I have always believed mandatory military service should be implemented in the United States.

Every American of age should serve their country and be willing to defend it if necessary. Serving in the military not only was a great personal experience, but it taught me how to be a self-sufficient individual at a time in my life when I needed it the most.

Growing up in a single parent household, I understood there were things my mother was not going to be able to teach me and it was up to me to learn them on my own, and the military was there for me.

I understand today’s United States Armed Forces are different from when I joined in 1987. The military has become a social woke experiment in which using proper pronouns to identify men who feel like women are more important than be combat ready.

Nevertheless, the military is a great way to earn a living, earn money for an education, and give back to the country that has given many so much.

This week it was announced K-pop stars and members of Korean boy band BTS are going to serve 2 years of mandatory military service as it is the policy in South Korea.

After several arguments between BTS and the Military Manpower Administration, in addition to rumors and accusations of favoritism, the band members are on their way to serve their country.

In a time when tensions with North Korea are on the rise, it is time for these individuals to fulfil their duties.

South Korea’s mandatory draft requires all males between the age of 18 and 35 to serve in the armed forces for a term of 18 to 21 months. The oldest member of BTS, Jin, is 29 years old.

Seriously, when does a boy stop been a boy and becomes a man? At 29 years old I had already served in combat and was enjoying a new career at the Department of Justice.

As much as I would like for this type of mandatory draft to be implemented in the United States, I also understand today’s American society is one of fragility and touchy feelings.

Our military institutions have become a cesspool of social justice psychobabble and political engineering incapable of facing a worthy adversary.

Hopefully, we will never have to engage in a global war because I really doubt our military is ready to face the realities of war.

Can you imagine the Jonas Brothers serving in the military? Neither can I, but they ought to.
